The show

As with the previous shows, presenters Ieva Stasiulevičiūte and Gabriele Martirosianaite will host the proceedings. This show sees contestants from the original four heats returning to try and move forward to the final on 11 March where six acts will compete.

This evening’s acts will have to earn the votes of not only the viewing public, but also that of the specialist jury consisting of the head of LRT Opus Darius Užkuraitis, music reviewer Ramūnas Zilnys, opera soloist Nomeda Kazlaus and conductor Gintaras Rinkevičius. Both the jury and televoting points will be ranked in the traditional Eurovision style.
